Windsor — Two state-generated ideas for repurposing the recently closed prison in Windsor are likely to be the subject of committee hearings in the Vermont House soon.

State officials have broached the idea of using the shuttered Southeast State Correctional Facility site either as a re-entry facility for former inmates that would provide them with transitional housing, or for mental health services.

But the town hopes to force a delay of any legislative decision on the 100-acre property off County Road by seeking the establishment of a state commission that would come up with recommendations for the property’s use.
